This intensive, life changing programme provides you measurable improvements in the relationships that matter most to you, plus an immersion in Nonviolent Communication . We offer a unique approach to learning combining training, live application of the learning and continuous support throughout the programme and beyond. When you sign up for Extraordinary Relationships you are joining more than a training programme – you are joining a group of people each committed to helping each other learn how to build the kind of relationships you have dreamed of.

Through the programme you will gain significant insights into a selection of relationships in your life and apply those insights with immediate results. 

You will learn about:

Yourself – your triggers; the meaning of your emotional signals; how to change your reactions; ask for what you need; stay connected to yourself even in difficult moments. 

People who matter to you – what their needs are; what they really mean and want from you; contribute to their enjoyment of life; support them in moments of crisis. 

The Communication ‘Dance’ – create a deeper quality of connection and mutual understanding; resolve differences and conflicts in ways that are good for all; give high impact feedback; maintain dialogue at all times. 

Enjoying Life – connect to the power you and others have to make life wonderful; celebrate life; communicate your gratitude and appreciation.
